The inverters require low maintenance when properly installed and operated.
Table 6.2 on page 27
presents the main procedures and time intervals for preventive maintenance.
page 27
provides recommended periodic inspections to be performed every 6 months after the inverter start-up.

6.5 CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
When it is necessary to clean the inverter, follow the instructions below:
Ventilation system:
Disconnect the inverter power supply and wait for 10 minutes.
Remove the dust from the cooling air inlet by using a soft brush or cloth.
Remove the dust from the heatsink fins and from the fan blades by using compressed air. See
